3 chambres double dans 1 logement historique avec des caractéristiques d'époque

Built 1885 - 1887 as a Gate keepers house to the nearby mansion, Valence created by Norman Watney, owner of Watneys Brewery. Brasted Lodge was fully refurbished in 1995 to include all mains services (gas, water power) whilst retaining and preserving characters of original Victorian charm.

Surrounding grounds known as Valence with 18th-century landscaped lakes, ponds and gardens designed by Lancelot Capability Brown, a historic/famous Landscape Architect. Watneys mansion at Valance is now a school for disabled children who attend by minibus. Isolation of the Lodge makes the house very private and tranquil and yet easy road access makes this an ideal location.

Brief history of site
The estate of Valence is listed in the first draft of the Domesday Book (1086) as Oistreham.

The site of Brasted Lodge was first developed in the mid-18th century, with later landscaping by Lancelot Capability Brown in the late-18th century. Further developments were undertaken by Edward Milner in the mid-19th century and by Henry Ernest Milner in the late-19th century.

Henry VIII was a frequent visitor to these parts when courting Ann Boleyn, who lived at nearby Hever Castle.

The village fame includes:
* John Frith, the Protestant martyr, who was burnt at the stake in 1533
* General Wolfe, a son of Westerham who died in his hour of Victory at Quebec, Canada
* Sir Winston Churchill, who lived minutes away at Chartwell. His statue is prominent on the village green.
* The Battle of Britain Spitfire & Hurricane fighter pilots flew from nearby Biggin Hill Airport during the II World War to save Britain from invasion. Pilots daily drank in the nearby White Heart, where a chalk board documenting tabs owed, but sadly many never returned. This today is placed in honour within The Imperial War Museum, London. In memory is a museum located at Biggin Hill Airport showing the braver of those who flew and Hurricane & Spitfire in the famous ‘Battle of Britain’
